Big Creek Greenway

Pathway of Alpharetta's Big Creek Greenway

About Big Creek Greenway

The Big Creek Greenway is a 12-foot wide path that stretches around 10 miles from Big Creek Park in Roswell to Union Hill Park. There are 2 sections of the trail. The Alpharetta section of the trail spans from Marconi Drive to Mansell Road. On the other hand, the second section lies within Forsyth County and extends from McFarland Parkway to Bethelview Road in Cumming, GA.

This lively paved path also doubles as a conservation effort where you can stroll through and observe the natural Alpharetta wildlife and flora. Blue Heron, Turtles, Deer, Ducks, and Canadian Geese are a few types of animals you can expect to see while walking or running along the trail. Since it’s paved, the entirety of the trail is highly ideal for those who enjoy biking, walking, running, and rollerblading!

The Big Creek Greenway travels through Roswell, Cumming, and Alpharetta with gaps in between, and there are plans to connect Alpharetta’s section to the Forsyth County Trail System. When on the trail, stay on the concrete path and avoid using the space between the creek and the path. Restrooms are available on the trail.
